Alien Force is a simple "blast everything that moves" game for Windows 3.xx. It was inspired by fond (albeit vague) memories of an old TRS-80 game called "Attack Force", which I found very addictive.

Description

Alien Force places you in control of a space ship on a mission to destroy all enemy ships. Destroy every ship on a level and you go up to the next level with more difficult enemies. The action is showed from top-down, and you move around on a one-screen field with obstacles. You are only allowed to shoot one missile at a time, so the game is not about non-stop shooting.

In the beginning levels, the enemy ships are easy; not even firing at you. As you progress through the levels, the ships get harder and start to shoot at you.
